I met the similar bug when I copy a file from Ubuntu 6.06 Server into
Ubuntu 9.10 via samba server on Ubuntu 9.10.
Server end:
OS: Ubuntu 9.10 upgrade from Ubuntu 9.04 Netbook Remix
samba server version: Samba 3.4.0
the version result of "dpkg -s samba" is: Version: 2:3.4.0-3ubuntu5.6
the content in /etc/samba/smb.conf:
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
security = share
guest ok = yes
[test]
comment = For testing only, please
path = /var/sambatest
browseable = yes
writeable = yes
Client end:
OS: Ubuntu 6.06 Server
mount.cifs version: 1.10
mount commend line: sudo mount.cifs //192.168.1.100/test /media/tmp -o guest,rw
When copy a *.tar.gz file from Ubuntu 6.06 into Ubuntu 9.10, the file
become corrupted.
execute "file" command in Ubuntu 6.06 on the initial good file:
file wpaudio.tar.gz
wpaudio.tar.gz: gzip compressed data, from Unix
execute "file" command in both Ubuntu 6.06 and Ubuntu 9.10 on the corrupted
file:
file wpaudio.corrupted.tar.gz
wpaudio.corrupted.tar.gz: data
the corrupted file can't be extracted with "tar xfvz wpaudio.corrupted.tar.gz",
it reports:
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
I attached these two files.
After read this reported bug, I also test copy a mp3 file through samba.
Although the copied mp3 file on Ubuntu 9.10 can be played by smplayer, but when
I execute "file" command on it, it says:
file *.mp3
test.mp3: data
When I execute "file" command on the good one in Ubuntu 6.06, it says:
file *.mp3
test.mp3: MPEG ADTS, layer III, v1, 192 kBits, 44.1 kHz, JntStereo
I think this mp3 is corrupted too.
I compile a samba 3.5.1 from source on Ubuntu 9.10, and repeat the copy
process from Ubuntu 6.06 to Ubuntu 9.10 through samba 3.5.1 server on
Ubuntu 9.10. And no error found.
